Chile star Ben Brereton Diaz — from Rovers to La Roja
THIS year’s Copa America has served as something of a post-Euros chillout zone for those watching back in Britain, and Chile’s call-up of Blackburn Rovers forward Ben Brereton has provided an additional, unexpected storyline.
The first games of the day in the Brazil-hosted tournament often kick off at 10pm UK time, just after the late game in the Euros has finished.
The coverage has had a low-key feel due to games being played behind closed doors and the BBC’s showing it via its digital mediums rather than on its TV channels.
